Mickeyland.... we are ready for you.

The long waited visit to Mickeyland (aka.Disney) will be happening soon.... cannot wait. I have made our own autograph books (used to collect signatures from different characters in the park, and adding photos later, almost like a memory book). 

 

When I asked the kids today (again), who they want to meet the most:

Kiharu- As always, her answer is "Winnie the Pooh".

 

Yoshi- have been changing from Jake the Pirate to Ninja to Curious George?!?! hm.... but he doesn't realize, there is one more big surprise we haven't told him yet.....

 

The last time I went to Disney in Florida, was probably 15 yrs ago with Nori. This time, I did a lot of advance planning, it's almost like working as travel agent. We are really excited, more because knowing how much the kids will have fun. We have waited until Kiharu is almost 4, hoping she can enjoy more and remember some perhaps. I think they are at the fun age to enjoy this trip, cannot wait..

 

 

(Nihon Okaasan & Otousan, just want to show you Chef Nori, preparing Tonkotsu soup noodles last week for us and friends.... It was a pork bone boiling marathon for more than 10 hrs... it was yummy. But Nori is already looking for new recipe to try next time)

One more week....

One more week..... the long waited surprise........ cannot wait..... (Shhh, don't tell the kids...)

Halloween

So Halloween had gone by so fast. Can't believe it's already November....

 

Last week, I volunteered in Yoshi's class, carving pumpkins with the kids. It was a lot of fun. It's my 2nd time carving pumpkins (last time, I was only watching Nori doing it). The kids even got to taste the roasted pumpkin seeds few days later.

 Last night trick or treat started alright, but very soon the rain & wind came (as predicted by weather forecast). Luckily, I was able to take some photos before it got worse. The kids had fun. They even did a second round of walking with Nori, and they came back home with candies, toy cars and even a quarter ($0.25). I should have sent Nori back again for few more rounds. ^_^

(Happy belated Halloween)
